Honestly, it looks pretty fantastic to me. You can see the huge improvements in that gif comparison that was posted not too long ago.

New Batman Arkham Knight Trailer

GAF told me if you see jaggies it's not a bullshot anymore.
He first posted a downsampled version of the complete version of that picture earlier in the thread, wrongly trying to trick people by asking them if it's a bullshot.
You posted a cropped picture of a huge 4K image as proof that a downsampled picture of that was not a bullshot.
What are you doing there buddy.

Probably debated to death already but yeh, this is a 'gameplay' trailer only in the loosest sense.
Apart form a few seconds of what appears to the actual gameplay perspective (even then no UI whatsoever in any of these shots, wonder if that's gonna be like that in the game) this was in-engine/ingame/real-time or whatnot. But it certainly didn't demonstrate gameplay from a perspective that's actually any useful.
Not the worst, still unnecessary marketing bullshit that I roll my eyes at.

Wow, that looks amazing. I'm at least 83% more excited for this now because the voice over (the Arkham Knight?) in the trailer is by John Noble from Lord of the Rings, Fringe, and Sleepy Hollow. That man has one of the best voices in all of entertainment-dom.

you can tell that these are in-game footage, impressive to say the least.
Why? I have a PS4 as well...
The best versions of the Arkham games have always been on the PC, so this was most likely PC footage.

This is ps4 footage according to the pixel counters
Mighty impressive then...

Is that confirmed? Because it'd be awesome if true.
Less of 900p? Seem a bit too much now.

That trailer didn't actually do much for me. Cool I guess but not as cool as everyone made it seem
Well, I wouldn't go that far. However, it is disconcerting since I've always found the narrative to be one of the weaknesses of RS Arkham games.

I like it more than AA and AC.
Too robotic and mechanical looking for my tastes. Too much going on, simple is best
yup.
Link?
But that would look terrible next to the Batmobile..

Liked the look of this! It's seemingly not a ground breaking game in terms of visuals, but for a UE3 game it looked quite nice, especially the few glimpses we saw of particle effects. It's shown enough to me to feel like a true next-gen game.
Batmobile should be fun to drive around in and break up the on-foot sequences nicely too.
Still need to get around to playing Arkham City. Never really felt like playing it even though I enjoyed Asylum and I've had it on Steam for quite a while now, but after that trailer it's definitely moved up my backlog list quite substantially!

Rendered in engine and real time are not the same things.

Pretty "meh" trailer to me. Maybe I would have like it better if they hadn't called it a "Gameplay Trailer", and then shown maybe 10 seconds total of gameplay.

Ok this looks absolutely incredible. A true next gen open world experience.
I love the Batman lore and the story for this game seems fantastic. Oh and driving the bat mobile is going to be divine.
Hope that was PS4 footage as I have no PC and want those graphics!

I see a lot of mixed reviews on the suit, but I don't know.
While I understand the appeal of the original simple design that the batsuit has had in the past games and comics, these improvements make sense for Batman. It makes a lot of sense that he'd work on tech enhancements over time to make his work easier or more effective. For fighting, I can see why he'd want flexible lightweight plates over the leather he used to have.
If you don't recall, he took a pretty good amount of physical damage in the previous games. And that said, flexible plates still allow quick movement and good mobility in battle, and allow for a lot of extra improvements. I like the design overall.

Well said my friend, well said and that's why it would make little sense giving him even less armor.

This game is looking rather amazing, damn. Hated the music used in the trailer. Love the colors popping out in this game.

I like the suit, but man that one bit where the suit "flexed" was weird as crap. Made him look like an Autobot, lol. But overall I've got nothing against Batman using technology to be better--I've always hated the "just the suit and some 'rangs" Bats, which is usually the same crowd as "he should be the only crimefighter in Gotham"--that means they're wrong twice.
